What Objects Does WAF Protect?

WAF can protect websites through domain names or IP addresses.

In cloud CNAME access mode, only website domain names can be added to WAF.
Your origin server IP address configured in WAF must a public IP address. For example, if an Elastic Load Balance (ELB) load balancer is configured for origin servers, a cloud WAF instance can protect origin servers as long as the load balancer has a public IP address bound.
In dedicated mode, you can add website domain names or IP addresses to WAF.
